Students model a wave by moving the end of a rope up and down. Which statement best explains the type of wave created by this motion?(1 point)
Responses
a longitudinal wave, where particles move in the same direction as the wave
a longitudinal wave, where particles move in the same direction as the wave
a transverse wave, where particles move in the same direction as the wave
a transverse wave, where particles move in the same direction as the wave
a transverse wave, where particles move perpendicular to the wave
a transverse wave, where particles move perpendicular to the wave
a longitudinal wave, where particles move perpendicular to the wave
a longitudinal wave, where particles move perpendicular to the wave
1 answer
The correct statement is: a transverse wave, where particles move perpendicular to the wave.
